Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are working on an animated project together.

The husband and wife duo are developing a fairytale that their two-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan can enjoy.

He told MTV News about his wife: “Yeah we actually got some stuff in development that we're working on, some animated stuff that her and I are putting together. So you'll definitely see her in that space too.

“Oh yeah, it's just something that we both enjoy, and even more so than that, we're both kids at heart. So we love those types of stories and fantasy/fairytale type of stuff.”

The executive producer of the upcoming Nickelodeon movie 'Rags' revealed that his desire for work at the moment is geared towards how his relatives can benefit.

He said: “I mean it's one of those things where a lot of the stuff I'm going to be doing in the near future is going to be really family-driven just because of the fact being a father and wanting to be able to provide content for my kids.

“So it works out really good. It makes you proud when you can have some work that your kids can go see.” - Bang Showbiz
